1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

For clinical cell-based therapies (e.g. CAR-T cells), the genomic integration of therapeutic genes into cells are selected using inefficient resistance genes of host origin to avoid potential immune response from using more efficient resistance genes of foreign origin. In principle, a serum-responsive promoter could express efficient resistance genes during the cell manufacturing stage that could then diminish during in vivo administration. To avoid genomic instability, we designed a synthesis-friendly serum-responsive promoter (SFSp) with no extreme GC ratios or repeats greater than 9 base pairs. SFSp was used to express a fluorescent reporter, whose expression was diminished after serum starvation. Furthermore, SFSp could be used in replacement of weak promoters (e.g. SV40p) for expressing efficient resistance genes (e.g. blasticidin resistance) from genomic integration via lentiviral infection. Thus, the regulation of resistance genes using SFSp could be a valuable tool in cell-based therapeutics to increase selection efficiency and reduce immunogenicity.
